Michael Yon: 'No Country Has Ever Treated Me So Badly'

Michael Yon was handcuffed at Seattle-Tacoma airport today for refusing to report in his annual income to border control officers. From Yon's Twitter:

When they handcuffed me, I said that no country has ever treated me so badly. Not China. Not Vietnam. Not Afghanistan. Definitely not Singapore or India or Nepal or Germany, not Brunei, not Indonesia, or Malaysia, or Kuwait or Qatar or United Arab Emirates. No county has treated me with the disrespect can that can be expected from our border bullies.

It's TSA folks who requested the income verification. But it was the Canadian Border Patrol who handcuffed him. Of course, just yesterday Yon hammered the Obama administration's DHS, "Border Bullies," so there's no doubt about Yon's "no country" comment. (And TSA's stopping Yon for income verification but giving the pass to British-radicalized Nigerian terrorists - now that's a problem.)

There's an interview at Big Government, "EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW: Military Blogger Michael Yon Detained, Handcuffed by TSA in Seattle Airport." (Via Memeorandum.)

But see Andrew Breitbart's interview with Hannity earlier tonight, "
From Gateway Pundit." Especially good is Breitbart's discussion of Michael Yon:
